A few funny things said this weekend....

1) Talking about my older sister's little running mini-skirt, I mentioned at a family dinner that I would like to get one of those because they are so cute. My little bro says, "Carolyn, right now if you wore one of those it would have to be called an 'inadequate skirt'!" He is totally right!

2) My dad was trying to freak my grandma out and so he told her that I had a heart murmer (not true.). Ryan quickly pipes up and says, "Yeah. And sometimes it moves up and comes out of her mouth too!"
He is such a riot.

3) While I cut my little bro's hair we were talking about people that were very rigid about not being the least bit physical while dating. For example: people that don't think they should kiss until they are at their wedding getting married. Not that this is bad, but my lil' bro and I do not uphold this view. I enjoyed (and still do!) kissing Ryan while dating and Kent is turning into quite the lip-slut, so obviously he is not against it. So Kent says, "I'd just like to tell those people, 'I'm glad you are saving yourself, hopefully the mortician touches you!'"
This completely reminded me of the moment in my life that I thought I would wait until I was engaged to kiss the love of my life. I was quite the idealist. Well, I'm sitting at my friend's house talking to his dad. I was telling him about this little goal in my life and he asked why I would ever do something like that. I told him, "My husband will be the best kisser I know."
Without missing a beat Jim (the dad) replies, "Yeah. And you'll be his worst."
I decided right then not to wait.


4) While everyone in my family was playing around with my grandpa's blood pressure cuff, someone asked my Aunt Tammy if you could take someone's blood pressure on their leg. Quickly responding I interjected, "How else could you take someone's blood pressure if they'd had both arms amputated?"


5) Talking about the Young Single Adult Ward and what the older unmarried people do we were saying that out here, they are asked to just rejoin their family ward. My brother-in-law said that they were called "Confirmed Bachelor's" and my grandma, who desperately needs hearing aids but refuses to get them, said, "What are they called? Confirmed Bastards?!"


And my favorite:
6) While out boating on Saturday, I showed my nephew Roman my pregnant stomach. Here's the rest:

Me: "So Rome, what do you think?"
Roman: "It looks pretty weird. And it is kinda hairy (seeing my little dark peach fuzz. What is that called again? The linea nigera or something like that?)......"
Me (laughing): "Yep, it kinda is huh?"
Roman: "Yeah. But don't worry. That is just the baby's hair."
Me: "So I won't have it after I have the baby?"
Roman: "Nope. It will come out with him."
I just about died laughing at that one! He is so matter-of-fact in everything he says. I kinda hope that our baby is just as wild as Roman. Never a dull moment.
